THE POPE's GORGEOUS ROBES
Purple Silk, Cloth of Gold En-
brOidered With Pearls.

Mile. Maria Pecci, the pope's niece, is
about to enter into the bonds of we'd
lock with Count Michele Maroni, a
member of the Guardia Mobile. The
marriage Is to take place in November,
and it is stated that his holiness
has expressed considerable anxiety
touching the trOuSSeau of the bride
elect and has Instructed his Cameriere
SegretO to stipulate that the young
lady'S dresses shall be white, black or
blue, and of no other tint. A private
secretary has to perform duties as deli
cate as they are multifariOuS; and,
bearing in mind the fact that some
years ago one of the aideS-de-camp of
ViceOry of India got into dire
trouble through his lack of viligence IN
locking after the pickles and the cold
mutton at government house, it is pos
Sible that the superintendent of a
lady's wardrobe may be among the
functions of the MonSignOre who is
permitted to penetrate into the inner
most receSSeS of the Vatican, says the
London Telegraph.
1t is stated that the pope has conde
Scended to give definite reasons for his
preference of white, black and blue
over all other cOlOrs. He holds that the
young people, and that brown and gray
only suit old women. ''As for all the
other. colors," the supreme pontitf is
said to have remarkee, Il do not like
them" OF course Pope Leo was only
abiding to the hueS i'll question as APP
piled to female attire. Concerning
1.-The other cOlOrS" in masculine dress,
it may be permissible to point out
that the pOpe's Swiss Guard are clad in
dOublets of flaming yellow and scarlet
their entire garb, it is related, having
been designed by Michael Angelo. The
whole college of cardinals, again, are
one blaze of scarlet, from their shoes
and stockings to their hats: the pOpe's
state cOachman wears coat of crimson
cut Genoa velvet, worth two guineaS a
yard; and the POntifical Noble Guard
wear uniforms as rubicund as those of
our own deputy lieutenants.
Ere the eStimable head of the Roman
church expressed himself in such strong
disfavOr of all cOlOrS save black, white
and blue, he might have paused to be-
stow a thought OH the amazingly Sumpt-
uous pOntificals which he himself
wears on solemn festivals. According
to Cesare VecelliO, the nephew of
Titan, the SOmmo POntefice should
wear on occasions of state, over rOchet
of purple silk, robe or mantle of
cloth of gold, thickly embroidered with
pearls. His remaining vestments are of
a hyacinth shade, and his ''pianelle'' or
slippers are of purple velvet, with a
cross embroidered in gold on the instep.
The ''regnO'' or ''vera mitra," symbolic
ing his supremacy over all the kings
and princes of the world, is encircled
by three crowns enriched with precious
stones, surmounted by small cross, the
same emblem being blaZOned on the
backs of his purple silk gloves.

LORD HUGGED BY A COOK.
The Peculiar Plight of an English
NObleman in a Railway Car.

NODIeman In halfway Gar.
As social leveler the switchback
railway at the Yankeries should COM
mend itself to Radicals, says the Mod
ern Society. The other afternoon lady
who has better handle to her name
than plain Mrs. went to the Kensington
show with her husband, sporting but
naughty parsonage not unknown at the
Horse Guards. After some little per
suasion my lady induced her lord and
master to treat her to a trip on the
switchback, and with that intent they
mounted the giddy stair which leads to
the departure platform, whereas usual,
there was crowded thr0ng OF passen-
gers waiting for a Shake-up. SO thick
was the crow that the lady was some
how separated from her better half and
went careering Oh her giddy course,
leaving him on the platform to follow
on the next car.
OF course on its return journey the
car bearing the countess met an out
ward-bOund car bearing the earl; and
what was the proud DANES horror to see
her husband, with his toes damned well
forward and an agOniZed expression on
his face, striving to preserve his equlll-
brium, while tlorid female, i'll whom
she recognized her own cook, chung to
him like grim death, with two fat arms
clasped around his symmetrical waist.
The countess waited for the return of
the wanderers, who, in consequence OF a
mutual recognition at the other end,
were not sitting next each other this
time. sAfter short argument the cook
eXplanatiOn-that she didn't know it was
my lord. but that she felt that funny she

so desperately as in old Dodge's bosom,
for the door next beyond the trunk
opened and his daughter, pale and trem-
bling, bounced out. The general had
been projecting little darby, legs first,
into the room of Miss Abiah PettibOne,
the Spinster principal of the ChapOne
academy for select young ladies up the
Hudson. She had retired early, bOlted
doors, fastened windows, looked under
the bed and in the bureau drawers, put
towel over the key-hole, commended
herself to heaven, and gone to bed with
the gas turned down. Here, at in the
morning, she had been awakened by a
Scraping on the lower panels of the door.
She had sat up in bed, rigid with horror,
as the traniOm swung slowly open, and
pair of big feet in red wool stockings
shot through the opening; from the
slim and not wholly straight Ethiopian
leg. The legs to the knees dangled
against the white china-glOss painted
door. Abiah's tongue Glove to the roof of
her mouth. Was this hideOus hotel

"Oh, pa, what has happened?" cried
Maria.

used the crowd.
"You hOrrid old man!' sang out a
lady Oh the stairs in her night dress,
trying to get into a poor wOman's
room"
Then Augustus tumbled off the trunk
as the door sprang open and Pete dashed
out of it in his shirt and stockings in his
wild fight for the upper regions. Be
hind him came Abiah with her front
hair in curl papers.
"Oh, you hOrrid old woman! No Won
der your husband is mad,' yelled the
lady on the stairs.
Everybody talked at once, till the
principal actors rushed into their re-
spective rooms. There were three diff
ferent versions of the affair given next
day, but you have got the facts about
Gen. Dodge and his new night key.

returned to the scene of his former tri-
umph-to the Jardin d'Ete. A superb
house greets him, and, like the
first night, Savatori leads Paulette
upon the stage. Paulette throws
the balls into the air that
Salvatore splits and brushes. Paul
cite holds the cards that Salvatore
pierces at his will. Then the trick OF
the ribbons-that of the target and the
bottle. The applause is tremendous:
Now there remains the last-the feat of
the rose. Paulette goes to stand on
which is placed basket of roses, Sc
lects one and returns to the center OF
the stage. She salutes the. audience,
places the stem between her dainty
teeth, leaving stem so short as sne
Presses down her lips that the audience
shudder at the danger she runs. She
looks an instant to the right, and in one
of the boxes sits lady whom she dis
covers smiling at SALVATORE, and throw
ing last look at Salvatore she notes his
responsive smile to that person. Al
most imperceptibly she outlines an in
complete, mystical Gala sign OF the
cross-then places her face in profile,
and, perfectly erect and mOtionless, at
the last instant she inclines her head
forward. The shot is fired and Paulette
drops dead on the stage.

Augustus Sala to the London Tele-
graph. This conduct did not please the
ShOpmen, some of whom ran for buck
cts of water and threw their contents
over the dragons, whose ardor was
cooled instantly.
The machinery of the law was then
set in motion, and the diapers assist
ants were summoned for having i'll
suited officers in the army. The case
was briStling with legal difficulties, but
the local justice and his SubOrdinateS
were equal to the occasion, and they
gave written judgment i'll the matter
which is not only a miracle OF lucidity,
but a unique specimen of Skillful ratio
cinatiOn.
The law was not clear OH the subject
of throwing water on people, although
there was clause in the penal code
which provided for the contingency of
matters such as ''addled eggs" or
''slops' being used by persons for the
perpetration of assaults. The distinction
between pure water and substances of
the nature of which the code took cog
nizance was graveiy and learnedly dis
cussed in the judgment, and the shop
men were eventually fined for their con-
tributiOns toward disturbance of the
peace.
The justice, however, did not forget
to include salutary admOnitiOn to
the dragons in his remarkable sum-
ming up. The officers had evidently too
high an opinion of their all-conquering
capabilities, for, despite their dashing
airs, the milliners and shop girls marked
their dislike for the military by paying
the fines which had been inflicted on
their champions.
